Οι τυφλοί

Summer 2011: Isidoros looks for Sofia in the alleys of a turbulent Athens, and Kleanthis, an amateur collector of facts and keeper of the 'Book of Everything', believes he can help him. April 1972: Giorgos, a young evzone, is about to star in a landmark theatre production and in the dictatorship's anniversary celebrations at the Panathenaic Stadium, tormented by something his telepathic gifts cannot save him from. Summer 1985, the Cyclades: Nate investigates the sudden death of his father, in a search where terrorism, psychedelia and an enigmatic traveller with two-coloured eyes bend reality. A multi-layered novel about the forms of Greek blindness and how these stories connect.
